VPN : How to Watch Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 Online

How to stream the second season of the Handmaid’s Tale in USA, UK, Canada, or Australia? Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 will premiere on Hulu on the 25th of April, 2018. Hulu is an American streaming channel that is geoblocked outside the US. That means you will not be able to stream Handmaid’s Tale online if you live in Canada, Australia, Germany, France, or Spain. There are actually two methods you can use to bypass these regional restrictions. By using VPN or Smart DNS, you will be able to unblock Hulu outside USA. Thus, watch Handmaid’s Tale online on PC, Mac, PS3, PS4, Xbox, Apple TV, Smart TV, Amazon FireTV, Roku, or Chromecast.

Handmaid’s Tale Season Streaming Channels

Here’s a list of official TV broadcasters of the second season of the Handmaid’s Tale.

Hulu has exclusive rights to Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 in the USA. That means it is the only streaming channel with broadcasting rights of all Handmaid’s Tale episodes across 2 seasons. As already mentioned, however, Hulu is georestricted outside USA. When I attempted to watch a Handmaid’s Tale episode online via Hulu overseas, I got the following geolocation error. “We’re sorry, currently our video library can only be streamed within the United States.“ That is when I started searching for a tool that would allow me to spoof my online location so that I would appear to be located in USA. VPN does exactly that. By connecting to an American VPN server, I was able to hide my real IP address and appear to be surfing the web using an American IP address instead.

VPN apps are available on PC, Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Android.

Connecting to an American VPN server unblocks all US streaming channels. This includes Hulu, Crackle, Vudu, ABC Go, American Netflix, and Amazon Prime.

In addition to bypassing geographical restrictions, VPN allows you to protect your privacy online by encrypting all your traffic.

There are plenty of VPN providers online. If you want to unblock Hulu outside the USA, I would recommend using ExpressVPN. They have multiple American VPN servers. This ensures that there is no load on their servers. Hence, you will not face any buffering or streaming issues when watching Handmaid’s Tale Season 2 online.

How to Stream Handmaid’s Tale S2 outside USA with Smart DNS Proxies

Tricking Hulu to believe you are in the United States can also be done using Smart DNS. In this case, the setup process is a bit different. You will have to manually configure your streaming device’s DNS server addresses and replace them with DNS codes from as Smart DNS proxy service that supports unblocking Hulu outside the US. Once you have setup Smart DNS on your Apple TV, Smart TV, Roku, PS3, PS4, or Xbox, you will be able to watch Handmaid’s Tale online as if you were in the United States.

Changing your device’s DNS server addresses does not change your IP address. Only geo-restricted websites and channels supported by the Smart DNS provider you have signed up with will think you are located in the USA.

No Internet speed reduction is involved when using Smart DNS.

Due to the use of DNS hijacking or transparent proxies by some ISPs, Smart DNS might not work for all.

Given that Hulu is one of the most popular streaming channels, most Smart DNS proxy services support unblocking it outside the United States. Personally, I use Unlocator to watch Handmaid’s Tale online PS3, PS4, Xbox, Apple TV, FireTV, Roku, and Smart TV. Sign up for a free 7-day trial and follow their setup guides to test Unlocator for free yourself.
